Info

The Volume dial is used to set the output level of the Generator. If the Generator is being used for either AM or FM then this parameter controls the intensity of the modulation. The setting of the Bal (“Filter Balance”) dial determines the proportion of the signal that is sent to Filter 1 and Filter 2. Turning the dial all the way to the right sends all of the oscillator's output to Filter 2, while turning it all the way to the left sends all of the output to Filter 1. Note that when using AM of FM modulation, this control in Generator 1 (or Generator 3) is disabled (greyed out). Generator Spread Though this parameter is not in all Generators it is in three of them: Time Sampler, Wavetable and Oscillator. Spread is the “polyphonic unison” of CrX4, the detuning of stacked Generators. The Spread dial is used to set the degree of detuning. When moved from the leftmost position the dial gradually detunes five of the currently selected Generators to produce a thick and fat sound. This does not affect polyphony (however it does use more CPU resources). The range is Off (thats 0 cent) to 50 cent. To make sure you not miss a very small detuning (when the dial is almost, but not yet at its leftmost position), there is a small indicator light top-right of this dial, which is lit as soon as all 5 voices are active.

Time Sampler Generator The Time Sampler Generator is one of the key features of the CrX4. In some ways, the Time Sampler Generator is like a conventional sampler: you load a WAV or AIFF file into the Generator and then trigger it. It however holds just one sample and there are no velocity splits or key regions. Although only one sample is used as basic waveform for the Time Sampler Generator, what you can do with this one sample is unique. You can time-stretch it in real-time (and this time is available as modulation destination for dynamic modulation in the matrix!). You can pitch-shift it without affecting the duration. You can use key tracking to control the Time parameter, all this is allowing you to create really weird sample-based sounds! The Time control enables you to continuously time-stretch the loaded sample in real-time. As a result, you can shorten or lengthen the sample independently of its pitch. In example, a value of 133 means that the sample is 133% of its original length. If it was originally 3 seconds in duration it becomes four seconds in duration. The Range is: 25%...3200%. Around the Time dial there are marks at 50%, 100% (green), 200, 400, 800 and 1600% The TimeTrack control enables you to set the duration of the sample independently of its pitch. Let’s say for example, your sample's root note is C3 and that it is 4 seconds in duration. What happens to the duration of the sample when you play a C4 (one octave higher)? This is where Time Tracking comes into play. If you set the Time Tracking control to 0, the sample duration remains at 4 seconds. If you set the Time Tracking control to 100%, the sample duration will be reduced to 2 seconds (a doubling of the frequency results in a halving of the duration, just as in the case of a conventional sampler). If you set the control to 50%, the duration will be about 3 seconds, while with a setting of -100% the sample is reversed and has a duration of 8 seconds. Range: -100%...100% The Spread is described in the general Generator description right before this section. CrX4 User Manual 15
